Chapter 572: Rescue mission two

Han Xin hesitated, about to ask something about it, but the man groaned beneath Xiang Yu’s boot.

"I don’t know anyone like that, but... there is a high secure area one floor down." Blood and saliva choked his voice as he forced the words out. "You might find them there."

Xiang Yu nodded, his expression satisfied. "Good."

Before the man could even plead for mercy, a sharp bang echoed through the corridor. Xiang Yu pulled the trigger, the shot piercing the air. "Consider that merciful," he said coldly as the lifeless body slumped beneath him.

Turning away, they walked towards the elevator at the end of the hallway. The weight of what had just happened hung heavy in the air. Han Xin glanced at Xiang Yu, concern flickering in his eyes. "Are you sure we will find him here?"

Xiang Yu scanned the keycard, a hopeful expression emerging. "I hope so."

As the elevator doors slid open with a soft ding, they stepped inside. The interior hummed quietly, and Han Xin felt the pulse of anticipation.

In a dark office nearby, a figure hunched behind a workbench in the lab. She peeked through the shadows, her eyes wide and fearful. Once the elevator doors closed, she snatched her laptop and began to type furiously. Her fingers danced across the keyboard, moving so swiftly it seemed like magic.

With a final press of a button, several doors clicked open in the basement below. The sound resonated like an invitation into the unknown. The woman stared at the screen, her heart racing, knowing the gravity of her actions. Time felt suspended as she waited for those beasts to tear those two people apart.

As Xiang Yu stood waiting for the elevator doors to glide open, a sudden surge of awareness prickled at the back of his mind. The Divine Emperor’s voice echoed sharply, urgent and foreboding.

"What’s in there?" Xiang Yu asked, his heart racing.

"A high-level mutated beast, a high-ranking zombie king, and a man injected with zombie serums," the Divine Emperor replied, each word laced with tension.

Xiang Yu’s brow furrowed. "What about Little Bai?"

The Divine Emperor’s response came with a warning. "He is there. Just be cautious when approaching him."

A smirk tugged at Xiang Yu’s lips as he turned to Han Xin. "Baby, be ready."

Adrenaline flooded Han Xin’s veins. He felt the familiar surge of energy licking like flames at the back of his mind. Xiang Yu clenched his fists, his muscles taut, as they both awakened their latent powers, their bodies tingling with the anticipation of battle. _{ƒгeewebnovёl.com}
